Solid argument in regards to why Russian is probably not going to train the dolphins to kill. I still think it's very cool that military dolphins exist. Our K-9 units in the sea.

I've been excited for PHP7 for the speed, never even thought what that would save in server costs!

Anyone else concerned that by helping this new bacteria thrive it will set off a series of unforeseen side effects?

This makes a lot of sense - also makes me laugh about how many times they've previously duplicated software in different offices.

Super interesting. My only concern is that with traditional braille, it's still printed on paper, and thus easily recycled. If you're creating building and/or city maps that changes regularly... it's not super feasible to keep printing new ones, even if the data is stored digitally and therefore easy to update. Very exciting stuff though.

This solves a huge pain point I have with my Alexa. That being said, it will still understand any man's voice in my home better than my own. Decisions decisions.

Are you planning on filling out those body parts that aren't currently clickable? I know you can't really lift weight for wrists, for example, but working on their mobility is fairly important, especially for those of us attached to a keyboard.

Some interesting points in regards to licensed applications as well. I know this has been a highly debated subject, but if you have an app that people use on their phones under your license, who owns the data? If the app is under investigation, could user's personal data also be at risk? We quickly agree to so many legally binding agreements without even thinking about it...

I'm curious as to whether or not parents put as much thought into naming their own children as authors do with their characters. I suppose not, because parents start with somewhat of a blank slate. Authors have to find a name that encompasses a fully developed character, even if they are fictional and will end up being less complex than a real person. It might be an interesting exercise to name yourself and your friends now, and see if you can think of a better name to suit them.

I think any animal would be startled if they started eating and a new object was covertly placed behind them... including humans. Cats aren't afraid of cucumbers, they're afraid of strange things in strange places.
